Description

Embark on an epic day of exploring along the undisputed world heavyweight champion of scenic roads, the Icefields Parkway.
Go on a journey along the famous Icefields Parkway, the undisputed world heavyweight champion of scenic roads, where jaw-dropping scenery is punctuated by more than 100 ancient glaciers, waterfalls cascading from dramatic rock spires, and turquoise lakes set in sweeping valleys.

Along the way, you'll make stops at all the well-renowned, must-see spots as well as some spots that only locals know about. Enjoy a small group guided tour as your expert local guide will be on hand to provide you with all the amazing local insights you can imagine, and you’ll be able to hit the trails for some short, mellow hikes to explore the best viewpoints and scenic vistas at your own pace without the constraints of a big bus tour schedule.

Hear stories from your guide and all the great local insights you could desire with a combination of on-road guiding mixed with in-destination solo exploring, allowing you to experience the best of each stop on the tour at your own pace.

Highlights

  • Explore the Icefields Parkway’s most epic locations
